Feedback from a few parents;
Thank you – you have given me a different outlook to my life. From this day forward I promise to myself and that of my immediate family that I’m not going to be the rescuer anymore and start living!

I have really enjoyed these two days as it has made me think about my life and the direction it has been heading in – i.e. ‘downhill’, and how I can do something positive about It for myself and my child. And that my child is just that, a child, and I don’t want to crush his joy or freewill as mine had been. Thank you very much.

I found this course very interesting, learning things about myself which I can improve in the future, also seeing things from a child’s point of view, what they are thinking, why they say certain things, and why we should give them that loving, caring atmosphere in every environment. Thank you.
